‘Glyph’ unravels a story hidden in the first novel, which is set in a near future rife with surveillance, where people can be labelled ‘unverifiable’. It follows siblings Briar and Rose as they attempt to survive in a world that strives to crush curiosity and meaning. The two books belong together but can also be read independently.
